I well remember listening to Kenny Everett live on Big L (Radio London on the North Sea) as he shared the microphone, while publicly training to be a DJ, with Tony Windsor (aka Tony Withers) in 1965. I was studying for my A Levels while listening on my transistor.
Even at that early stage he was an obvious STAR.

Great actor (Oliver Lansley) playing him on the BBC4 TV play, ‘In the Best Possible Taste’.

In many ways Kenny’s DJ technique reminds me of the literary technique of Rhys Hughes… And vice versa!
